- Community AnnouncementsQuick Fix (Wall Phasing)Hi! Just a quick fix for the latest update. Ironically enough, my 'experimental fix' to prevent phasing through the ground at high speed, while doing it's job, could phase you through walls under certain conditions.

- DOOMQuickmap by 1i1weggy478 downloads
- Knightshade SailAdded a ton of new traps and parkour utilities. Built additional set of smaller boats, changed spawn location to simulate boarding the first ship. Added extra point lights. Changed theme. Removed level orb, so only objective is to defeat all the enemies.457 downloads
- Martial TranceA hard level centered around tough encounters with some parkour sprinkled-in between battlements. Maybe the parkour parts could be improved a bit, don't hesitate to tell me if a section was confusing, tedious or too difficult, I'm proud of this one, and I hope you enjoy it!365 downloads
- The Keeper of ShadeQuickmap by Positato323 downloads
- VIRTUEA combat + parkour map. I tried to incorporate a few new or unique aspects into the combat and parkour. None of it is groundbreaking but it makes for a nice map with almost-vanilla gameplay. It's not a super long map, but I hope you can enjoy it as much as I did. There is one easter egg (a hidden...300 downloads
- LINE OF FIRE!! Before you start playing, please read below !! This parkour map has a linear structure. There may be ways to skip the intended route, but please try the intended route first, otherwise you'll be missing out on the fun. Therefore, keep these points in mind: 1. The intended route uses weapons ON...255 downloads
- Bloody Castle DeluxeThis map has taken a long time, and it's finally published. It started as a personal project but has become an awesome collab between myself and Breadgar. This is a large / longer map. As far as shards, there are 10 shards total. 3 'key' shards, and 7 'secret' shards. Goodluck finding them all (n...229 downloads
- ContingentsMy first quickmap, lots of different ideas went into this level, but I feel like none of them were fully realized. Still, I think the result is a fun, medium-lenght take on the classic tower design, I hope you enjoy it! Quickmap by CoqCriard212 downloads
- BRAMBLE HEARTAnother parkour map, it was supposed to be similar to Garden but I needed a way to block off areas so that the player couldn't just skip them so I placed down a few spikes, 2 hours later and now I hold the record for most spikes in a single QM level, probably. I would have liked to make it longer...195 downloads
- WEAVERChallenged myself to make a quick map during another game's maintenance period, got cut short by dinner, ended up taking like a fifth of the intended time... oh well This one is another classic tower. In my mind it would fit into the Obsession hub, although the combat is a bit easier and the leve...188 downloads

- GARDENHad a few assignments due so it took me a bit longer than i wanted to post this.... Anyway, here is a fun parkour map. Due to how the game works, sadly i need to impose some rules in order to make sure you're not cheesing it. The point of the map is to play the intended route, not just get to the...182 downloads

- Torn ShadesA more linear quickmap to try your speedrunning capabilities.101 downloads
- Lost in the MonolithA brutally difficult map about advanced wall-kicking through a dead monolith. If it's (somehow) not hard enough for you, try collecting all the shards for a flawless run. Good luck, knight.96 downloads
- The Sealed FiveChoose your starting gear, step through a portal, and steel yourself for a dungeon designed to test skill, patience, your ability to not fall into water. Five formidable foes lie in wait, guarding five ancient orbs. Pro tip: jumping is recommended. Falling... not so much.89 downloads

- PART ONE: THE CLIFFSok first time trying to do something this large- oh wait: Welcome to the Island of His Majesty, The King(for now). He has spent years oppressing his people forcing them under his iron-fisted rule. YOU need to kill him... pretty simple right? (part two sometime)73 downloads

- THEIA PAREMVASIThis is a brutal combat level (Like most of mine) where you can't always know what happens next. This level will take even a skilled player many attempts. The title is a reference to ULTRAKILL Tenbre Rosso Sangue. The knight was tired. It was a long time since they rested. They didn't care. after...72 downloads
- THE TESTTHE TEST is a test to see how well you can beat the Armless with 2.5x health and a stun shield. A challenge for most players but do not fret if you don't think this is a great enough challenge! More awaits those who want to feel pain instead of rushing past it.

Why Shady Knight mods break
A mod is compiled against one version of a game. When the game updates, anything that reached into the parts that moved stops working, and it usually stops working silently rather than with a message that explains itself.
That is what the table above counts. It is not a guess: each row is a mod the community has reported as broken by that specific release. The number is a fair measure of how disruptive an update was, and it is the reason people delay updating a game they have modded heavily.
Common questions
Does IndexGG host Shady Knight mods?
No, and it never will. Every download link points at the author's own page on Nexus, GitHub, CurseForge or wherever they published it. We index the ecosystem; the files stay with the people who made them.
Where does the compatibility data come from?
From the communities that maintain it in the open, not from guesswork. Each claim carries how it is known, so a reported breakage is never presented as though the author said it.
Why is a mod listed as broken when it works for me?
Compatibility depends on your exact game version and the rest of your load order. A mod marked as broken in one release may work fine on an older one, which is exactly why the version is recorded next to the claim rather than a bare yes or no.
